> The work started at the end of November 2020, just days after Stockholm’s Board of Education was hit with a 4 million SEK ($456,658) GDPR fine for “serious shortcomings” in the Skolplattform. Integritetsskyddsmyndigheten, Sweden’s data regulator, had found serious flaws in the platform that had exposed the data of hundreds of thousands of parents, children, and teachers. In some cases, people’s personal information could be accessed from Google searches. (The flaws have since been fixed and the fine reduced on appeal.)
$400K sounds like nothing when it comes to something this serious, but then the fine also got reduced? Reduced to what I wonder, and for what?
